My idea
behind this this Predator biohelmet is that during the future war between
Skynet and humanity, a Predator visits the Earth for a hunt. As usual, the
Predator just observes his prey before deciding if any in the area are worthy game.
The humans are still impressive, but there is something new, that he's never see before. It has captured
his interest. The Terminator. Two versions exist, one with skin and the other without. He chooses a skinless
version and proceeds. Ultimately, he does prevail, and brings
back the endoskull, and its energy weapon for his trophy wall. This was such a satisfying
hunt, the Predator designs a new biohelmet, in tribute to his latest victory. We call it
the Endobio (bio is short for biohelmet).

Casey
McCabe did a sketch for this bio back in
2014 with input and direction from me (Richard J. Kisielka). After a lot of
back and forth, I came up with the idea to use casts of the Terminator Endoskull
temple details in the cheeks of the bio. Once the sketch was finalized, Jason
Nelson was asked to pen it up as he does really nice line work. At this point
it sat in the Casey’s “things I would like to sculpt pile”. In the few years
after the drawing Casey had gotten to know his now good friend Brandon Croslin,
who in just a few short years has grown at lightning speed as an artist,
sculptor, mold maker, painter etc. Casey knew that if anyone could pull this
off, Brandon could. Casey brought the idea to me. I trust Casey’s opinion and I
commissioned Brandon to sculpt it. He deserves all the credit in the world on
this project. He molded the bio twice to get a rigid cast to be able to sand smooth and
mold again. It was a massive project. Casey made some of the details like the custom laser
housing and the small circles by the cheek details (which are possibly hose attachments for air filtration in toxic atmospheres) by the cheek details, and Ruben Morales 3D
designed the temple detail. It is awesome to collaborate with so many awesome
people. The first one was set aside and will be sent to me after the New Year
2019. It is a pleasure to see my dream come alive thanks to all these talented
and great people.

I'm currently working on a Terminator inspired shoulder cannon, and eventually, Terminator inspired armor, and wrist gauntlets.
